MICHIGAN MATTERS.
A NICE LAW.
Are Members of the Army Amenable to
OWL law In TUNES of Pence?

Are Members of the Army Amenable to
Civil Law In Times of Peace?
A few DAYS ago Sergeant Clark stationed
at Fort Wayne. near Detroit, shot Private
Albert Stone. as the latter was attempting
10 make his escape. Stone died the next
day. Comp amt has been made against
Clark, charging him with feloniously,
wilfully and of malice aforethought
shooting Private Albert Stone, intlicting a
mortal wound, from which he died within
one day.
1t is the first time that the question of
the Jurisdiction of any civil court over Of
lenses committed by one soldier against
another on military reservation has been
raised i'm Michigan, and cases elsewhere
are rare. Article 80 of the articles of war;
which are really United States statutes,
reads:
"When any officer or soldier is accused
of a capital crime, or OF any offense
against the person or property of any citi-
zen of any of the United States, which is
punishable by the laws Of the land, the
commanding officer, and the officers of the
regiment, troop, battery, company or de-
tachment to which the person so accused
belongs, are required, except in time war,
upon, application duly made by or in be-
La of the party injured, 10 use their ut
most endeavOrs to deliver him over to the
civil magistrate, and to aid the officers of
justice in apprehending and securing him
in order to bring him to trial. If, upon
such application, any officer refuses or
willfully neglects, except in time of war,
to deliver over such accused person to the
civil magistrates or to aid the officers of
justice i'm apprehending him, shall be dis
missed from the service.
After the shooting il was stated by the
commandment of Fort Wayne that the case
was one wholly within the jurisdiction of
the military authorities. and an investiga-
ton was instituted. The c0mmandant
further held that no civil authorities could
in any way interfere. The above law,
however, shows that they have a clear
right to investigate, and that it is the duty
of the commanding officers to aid in the
investigation.
Section $685. chapter Ill, title Xxx. of
the United States statutes provides that
every person who commits murder within
any fort. arsenal, dOckyard. magazine or
in any place under the exclusive jurisdic-
ton Of the United States shall suffer
death. The punishment for manslaughter
under such conditions is fiXei at not more
than three years Imprisonment and fine
Of not over 81, 900. The law further pro-
vides that these offenses shall be tried be-
fore any court of the United States. The
crime of manslaughter NAV be found un-
der charge of murder
The question of jurisdiction is an inter
esling one. and the case will he watched
with great interest The general opinion
seems to lie that civil law is supreme in
time of peace, and that court martial
cannot try for murder.

Recent cable dispatches from London
state that the line of steamers estab-
lished by the Canadian Pacific railway,
to run between Vancouver and Yoko-
hama, is to receive a subsidy from the
British government for carrying the
mails. This will make that line much
stronger competitor than the American
line for the Pacific trade. 1t is also
stated that the Canadian Pacific COM
pany is about to secure from the British
government subsidy for mail line
across the Atlantic (from Ireland to
Canada) as well as across the Pacific,
thus establishing lines of fast steamers
on both seas

BRoCKwAY CENTRE. MICH

DIR. Hal c. Wyman of Detroit, men,
Der of the state board of corrections and
charities, who has given the subject
much consideration, in speaking of the
increase of the different forms of insani-
ty, expresses his opinion regarding the
failure of so many minds, as follows:
1--WE live constantly on strain. The
tendency of the times in commercial,
social and religious spheres is fast.
Fortunes are made and lost too quickly;
impulses are obeyed heedlessly. and our
feelings are uncontrolled and allowed
full sway. Crankism is fearfully on the
increase, and it is but step over the
line from eccentricity to insanity.
Then, too, this country is made the
dumping ground of all nations. Mich
igan is border state, and the flow of
immigration through Detroit and Port
Huron is wonderful. A certain per-
centage of all those who are sent over
here from other countries are lunatics.
In every boat load OF immigrants the
European authorities manage to ship a
number of their insane; and we have to
care for them. The number of insane
and the amount of money required to
care for them are monstrous if you
come to figure them out" The DR..
says that those who are in position to
form an intelligent OPP 'nion. believe that
in many cases home treatment is the
best, and discourage people from send
ing their uniortunates to the asylum.
His opinion on this point is
worth careful consideration. 81 think
home treatment will do much good.
Patients can be treated at home by
trained nurses OF course home treat
ment and trained nurses cost money,
and think in the poorer cases the state
should provide funds for their care.
They have to be cared for anyway, and
the system that promised the best re-
suits should be the one put in practice. "
DR.. Henry Carpenter, who died at
Lancaster, IA, few days ago, came
of a notable family of physicians. He
had lantern hanging in his hall which
had been brought over from Switzer-
land by his ancestor, DR.. Heinrich
Zimmerman, in 1898. This progenitor
of the family in America Anglicized his
name into Carpenter. In each genera
ton from that time to the present the
head of the family has been named
Henry and has been physician, with a
single ex option in the name. The late
DR.. Carpenter was the family physician
of Thaddeus Stevens and James Blu -
chanan, and attended them both in
their last illnesses. 1t was at his wed
ding that they met for the last time,
and he was the mediator who effected a
reconciliation between them after long
estrangement.

To have you for a beau;

But I'll not be either sold or bought,
For really love yourself
In storm and cloud you have been true,
And bore up as best you could;

And some in baffled mood.
Then Sally blushed with sterling pride,
AS she at Jason gazed,
And he with open mouth so wide,
Looked perfectly amazed.
But Jason gently took her hand,
And kissed her many times;
And now they're joined in Hymens band,
And merry pealed the chimes.
